- "Ving Tsun Trilogy" by Moy Yat
Idea of Ving Tsun Museum (VTM) conceived
During his first workshop presented at Meng's Martial Arts, Sifu Moy Yat expressed the idea of the VTM to Sifu
Meng during the weekend of Sifu Meng's wedding. He had tried a similar
idea on the East Coast of the United States but had not met with success.
A working committee was immediately formed to develop the idea. Committee
members consisted of Benny Meng, Richard Loewenhagen, Rick
Howard, Kathalene Howard, and Jeff Ramsey.
